Don't mock me if I'm incorrect here, because I'm still just an ignorant 0L, but didn't the film make a minor mistake in Harvey Dent's trial near the beginning? He was questioning that mafia guy, and when the witness redacted what he'd said in the deposition Harvey asked permission to treat the witness as hostile. After the witness tried to shoot him, someone else said to Dent, "Helluva cross," or something like that.

But aren't opposing witnesses already treated as hostile? I thought the whole point of asking permission to treat someone as a hostile witness was so that you could ask leading questions of your own witness, etc.

Again, don't mock me if I'm mistaken, but this did bug me.

All in all, fantastic movie though. I know it was preachy, but I thought the preachiness was a bit deeper than is standard for Hollywood.

Not sure about the hostile part, but the "Helluva cross" you mention was something like Gordon telling Dent "I heard you have a hell of a right cross." This was a reference to his punch, not cross-examination. Also, since they had his deposition, I assume he was their (Dent and Dawes') witness, not Maroni's.

Nope. The median is the grade of the student that's right in the middle of the entire class. If no student gets a B, there's no way the median can be a B (even though the Curve itself could be set at B or B+).

If there are an odd number of students, then yes, it would have to be an A or C. However if there are an even number of students and 1/2 get As and 1/2 get Cs then the median will be a B.
